    No more road kill this week, and no spending so no other change either. Off down to see a friend this weekend so will be looking out for roadkill when we walk her dogs.

  • Is it me or does everyone seem to be having a roadkill drought lately?! :confused: There must be too many of us eagle eyed MSE's around!!

    Just 1p roadkill in the tin today, I was at the front of the Greggs queue at peak lunchtime and I heard it calling my name!! I didnt hesitate and jumped on it before remembering that about 15 people just watched me lurch down for an old penny on the floor! :rotfl:

    Crikey my LBM has changed me!! :j xx

  • Thanks Sue UU,

    I'll never smoke again! Just need to get my head round losing a bit of weight. Not much in the pot I'm afraid today only a few pence but I did make an extra 10 quid but then had to spend in on Gas! Oh well, looks like its gonna be a road kill dog walk tomorrow.

    Happy saving everyone. :j
